But to become a good and influential speaker, a lot of hard work and strategy is required. We are providing you some of the tips that may help you becoming one of the great speakers of the world.

Confidence is the first Gradient –

There is always a stage phobia for those who have gone to the stage for the first time or who are there very rarely. . It is not easy to go to the stage and utter a few words on some specific subject with a large no of people staring at you in the expectation that some new and interesting facts and information will emerge from between your lips. It requires a lot of confidence and that confidence is the outcome of constant practice and hold over subject/ content. Don’t miss any chance to go to the platform that gives the opportunity to speak something. It is necessary for you to be acquainted with the stage in order to shed that phobia related with it.

Proper knowledge of Content / Subject –

The first thing that will boost your confidence to go to the stage and express your views is the complete command over the subject matter which is gonna be the central part of your speech. Prepare outlines or headings of the content instead of cramming the whole material. Give proper thoughts to it. Add stuff which is both informative and interesting. People are here to get the interesting information not for getting bored with dull speech. You have to bind the audience with your magic words.

Add some Stories or Interesting Facts to your Content –

Don’t have plain speech with no interesting fact or story. Your speech must be like a story with beginning, middle and end. Fill it with proper examples which may create both interest and suspense. It should not be a general or plain speech which is started just to finish it.

Use Simple and Effective Language –

Language should be conforming to the situation and level of the audience. Try to use the language as simple as possible with Correct Pronunciation.

Proper Homework –

Home Work is the key factor for making effective speeches. Practice should be made at home in front of mirror or family members. We reiterate that cramming will spoil your speech and its essence. Give your own words to the subject of the speech. Keep practicing till you get some perfection and with that confidence.

You can add some quotes of great people to support your viewpoint. It will be helpful to convince your readers regarding what you are saying. This experiment will add some weight to your speech. Here cramming is must to utter the quotes at the stage.

Adopt right Posture and Gesture –

Your posture must demonstrate your confidence. You must stand straight with your eyes at the audience. Don’t bend your body or lower your head. Even your gestures must be docile. Don’t adopt aggressive gestures. Be a decent speaker.

Keep timing in your mind –

Don’t be a sprinter either of a marathon race or its shortest version. Timing must be in your mind. People don’t want to list to extended lectures. If you extend your speech with no real content in it, it tends to loose its sheen and with that interest of the audience. You may have to cut sorry figure here.

Prepare backup plan as well –

Sometimes it happens that a speaker is expected to stay at the stage a bit longer. You can’t stand mute at that moment just because you are running out of words and thoughts. For such situations you must have a back up plan. But use this extended speech as a back up plan only when it is required.
